40 years of site designation Gorleben - 40 years of resistance

40 years and still going strong ...

On February 22, 1977, Gorleben had been designated as the site for a "Nuclear Disposal Centre". This did completely shift not only the Wendland politically. Since then, everything changed and women like Marianne Fritzen saw the necessity to make a step further and to generate the "structural and organizational" conditions for the fight against nuclear power: in March 1977, the citizens' initiative has been invented again, as a registered association, mean and useful!

We have gone through ups and downs during these 40 years. Spying, discrimination and criminalization. But we did not stop our attitude of having fun, which has often brought the nuclear lobby, their submissive politicians and authorities and many more to the point of despair. The slogan "Gorleben shall live" was born. We have achieved a lot: the energy transition and an obsolescent model nuclear energy in Germany.

We want to make a party with you and we do not want to forget all the future tasks: that Gorleben has finally ceased to be a site for the final storage, that 113 Castor casks emit their radiation in the Gorleben woods, that nuclear energy is not at all discontinued on a European and worldwide scale.

We would like to invite you for a proper resistance party celebrating the 40th birthday of the BI: on Saturday, March 25, 2017. Theater, weird speeches and songs, movie, live music and disco.

Hot soup will be offered by the VolXküche, we would appreciate receiving potatoe salad and other salads and pudding for the buffet.
